Hello everyone - Sorry if this is in the wrong place or too simple a question but can I ask your vast knowledge for some help.

All my music is on my iMac [10.8] in iTunes. It is also all on my iPad. The iPad is synched to the iMac "automatically over wi-fi". When I delete a music track from the iPad a cloud symbol apears beside it, when I play tracks on my iPad it also plays these cloud tagged ones.

Sadly, I tried that and it made no difference, it also meant that the iPad would not let me delete any tracks already on it

I'm not sure I read your first post correctly.

What you are experiencing is the behavior of iTunes in the Cloud. This is normal behavior. I have the same behavior, but for me, turning "Show All Music" off hides all cloud purchases, and shows only music locally stored on my phone.
